The Ambassador in Paraguay (Frost) to the Secretary of State

Asunción, March 27, 1944—2 p.m.
[Received 10:06 p.m.]

176. Regarding expulsion of German organizers dealt with in despatch 1860 March 1, 194470 I am happy to report that President and Foreign Minister have now promised that several expulsions can be arranged in immediate future. In view of exit of three pro-Ally Ministers71 from the Paraguayan Cabinet I indicated that definite action regarding Nazi leaders would reassure United States and other countries as to Paraguay’s continuance of United Nations’ policy.

Problem of transportation to the United States must be discussed very shortly and prompt information respecting it from the Department would be helpful including possibilities of army planes from Panama.
